There will be a Steering Committee and four sub-committees. Each committee will be made up of 10-13 people including Executive Board members, AIA Staff member and representation from the membership. Meetings will begin in October. The AIAAA State Conference was held in Prescott, September 9-11th. A new record of attendance was almost set with 211 Athletic Directors present. Not only did high school athletic directors attend but middle school athletic directors attended as well. Dr. Michael Fowler, AIAAA Representative, acknowledged Herman House as an inductee into the 2018 AIAAA Hall of Fame. Mr. House was accompanied by Rob Roberson, Youngker High School as well as Robert Crosswhite, Joseph City High School. Other awards were given out to athletic directors from across the state – including Ms. Toni Corona – Safford High School, as the 3A Conference Athletic Director of the Year. The Sections 7 & 8 Conference will be held in St. George, Utah September 15-18. The Student Leadership Advisory Committee (SLAC) will meet on September 13, 2018 at the AIA Office. SLAC is looking for sponsors that would be interested in hosting the State Student Leadership Conference for the spring of 2019. The Sports Medicine Advisory Committee (SMAC) discussed at their August meeting the need to educate student athletes on the ill effects of opiate usage. To do so, they have applied for a $100,000 grant which would hopefully help develop a course similar to AIA’s Brainbook. The AIA is planning to work alongside the Department of Health Services (DHS) to develop a pilot program that will allow physical therapists to clear student athletes to return to play after a concussion. The physical therapists would need to have a special certification specifically directed to sports and who will also work alongside a physician during the clearing process. The initial plan is to have 4-5 physical therapists participate in the pilot program. The AIA has hosted two new athletic director workshops with nearly 50 new athletic directors this year. Bylaw workshops have begun across the state with the next being held at Lake Havasu High School on October 24, 2018. The winter coaches meeting will be held on October 27, 2018 at Central High School. The meeting will begin with check-in at 11:00 am and will conclude at 3:00 pm. The winter coaches meeting will include the following sports: basketball, winter soccer and wrestling.

  • Dear Desert Vista Family, Thank You
    “Excellence Through Performance” Dear Desert Vista Family, Thank you for sending and preparing your student(s) for AzMerit and Science AIMS! It has helped tremendously with the logistics of testing all of our students. Prom is coming up on Saturday, April 28th from 7:30pm-10:30pm (as required by the location) at The Venue in Scottsdale. It is a wonderful time to come together to enjoy music and dancing. Hard work, planning and preparation by our student body council members and teacher sponsors go into planning this memorable occasion for our students. In keeping with the high school tradition of having fun and embracing our safety first for all students, both during school hours and all extra-curricular activities, I would like to partner with you for the safety and well-being of our students. While planning this exciting event with your child, I ask that you keep in mind that party buses are popular for some students to take to and from dances, but please know that not all companies have our students’ best interest at heart and/or do not know the school and parent expectations for such events. I would like to recommend that each parent check the reputation of the company and driver, and discuss expectations with the driver when your child gets on the bus. We will request that all buses drop students off at the entrance to the dance whereby an administrator and security guard will coordinate the exit of the students off of the bus. Once parked, the administrator and security guard will search the bus.

  • In Keeping That in Mind, We Ask That All Seniors Leave Their Back Packs at Home on Friday, May 18Th
    “Excellence Through Performance” Dear Desert Vista Family, As we head into the home stretch, I want to take this opportunity to personally thank each and every senior student and their parent and/or guardian. The senior leadership has been strong and effective, and has positively impacted all of us here at Desert Vista. This year’s senior class expressed themselves amazingly, and displayed appropriate spirit and behavior at our assemblies, all of our extra-curricular activities including all dances, while on campus during the school day and within their classrooms. They worked tirelessly on their academic learning and preparation for their future. They treated each other with kindness and respect, and were concerned for others. Thank you for leaving such a strong legacy of what a senior leader should be on the Desert Vista High School campus! I wish you all the very best that life has to offer and please know that you all will be missed! Keeping that in mind and continuing with these last few days of school, we have some wonderful activities planned for our seniors and our desire is for all to enjoy. If you are a parent of a senior, I ask that you partner with us to encourage a strong finish until the end; both academically and behaviorally. We have had thoughtful, positive and impactful leadership from our seniors and expect them to finish strong! We ask that you talk to your senior and encourage good choices that follow district and school policies, including ‘senior pranks’ that are not tolerated by either our district office or school.
